Ladies and Gentlemen, update your Apple iP*
by Volker Weber
Apple has issued iOS 3.21 for the iPad, fixing Wi-Fi issues and other assorted bugs, as well as iOS 4.01 for the iPhone, which gives you a more accurate reading of the iPhone's reception, resulting in fewer, but taller bars.
The iPad update is a 456.9 MB file which is going to take two hours half an hour to download at my end of the Intertubes. The 305.5 MB download for the iPhone took only a minute!
Update: Apple definitely applied more fixes to 4.01 than the reception bars. The 3G is usable now. I found it unbearably slow with 4.0 but that is no longer the case.

Excellent! Hoping for similar results with my 3G. And if they've addressed the iPad Wi-Fi dropping, I'll be a very happy iFanBoy...
Same here. 3G reacts much better now. I hope my stability issues are fixed, too.
thank you for this info.

iOS 4.01 also appears to have fixed the Exchange time-out issue that was introduced with iOS 4.0. This issue required a configuration profile to be downloaded to allow Lotus Traveler to work with iOS 4.0. Traveler works with 4.01 without the additional profile installed.
My 3GS crashed again yesterday, I had it in my pocket and could not switch on the display anymore. The on/off switch also did not work, I had to do a soft reset. So the 4.0.1 update did not fix it. At least it does not happen often, but it's still very annoying.
